Crohn's disease
I dont' know if you are still active but I just got active on the Crohn's article and saw your post about pregnancy. I think that it's a good idea to set up a title for pregnancy. There is a lot of information about it and I know a lot of people have questions about CD and pregnancy including the use of medications. If you are still active on Wikipedia, please drop me a comment on my talk page. Thanks, -- Crohnie Gal Talk  20:23, 7 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi nice to hear from you. I'm sorry though, what information did I supply to help you talk to your dr about?  I have been working the article as my disease allows but I don't remember getting to pregnancy yet.  If you really want some info though about pregnancy, Crohn's and esp. medicine use go to [http//www.ccfa.org] I've been a member there since 2002 which is after diagnosis, and my first surgery, and learning about them.  They help me a lot about learning new things going on towards the help of Crohn's disease. Also, I've found this one  helpful. If I can help at all, please don't hesitate to either drop me a note on my talk page or even an email (my email is activated on my talk page).  Good luck with the new little one and enjoy.  I am begging already for grandchildren! :) -- Crohnie Gal  Talk  12:10, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi again, I worked on the article a bit yesterday. I put in a title about Crohn's and Pregnancy but I haven't gotten aroud to adding to it yet. I have to find the citations and then write it up. If you feel like it please join in at the article. I can use all the help I can get! :) Also, look at my comments about this on the talk page. -- Crohnie Gal  Talk  14:52, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:BillyCoutu.JPG

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

About adding biographies of Canadian women
Hello Westendgirl, thank you for your contributions. I am a contributor to the French version of Wikipedia and I just discovered that you recently created an article about Emma Gaudreau Casgrain that is unknown in Quebec. You also created the article about her husband, Henri-Edmond Casgrain, little known too. I will do the French version of these two biographies. I will also write that of Victoria Cartier that you created.

I also read that you are currently working on biographies of Canadian women and that you have a good command of French. Several of these biographies are not yet on the English version of the encyclopedia. I realized some of them for the French version that you could resume for the English version without having to do the research for the sources.

With articles on Harriet Brooks, Margaret Newton, Ursula Franklin, and Véronique Morin, who already exists for the English version, I wrote other biographies of Canadian women that could be included in the English version. Anne Marcotte, Cora Tsouflidou, Louise Champoux-Paillé and Renée Hudon among others. If you read French, you will see why I created their biographies. Since there are still a huge number of articles to be created for the French version, I do not have time to translate them for the English version. So help would be welcome!
